Hi ladies we are having a thunderstorm, so I'm not going to stay on long. Just wanted to check in and say hi. The two peddlers I got were 1) VIVE exercise peddler, and 2) EnMotion. The VIVE was about half the price of the other one, folds up nicely and it fairly light. I took that one to work. The EnMotion in more of an…

Hi friends. I had internet woes all day, so this will be just a quick hello. I had a nice visit with DD#2 and have set up both desk pedalers . I don't remember who was talking about them, but I got two and took one to work. They are kind of fun but harder than you'd think. Rori and Barbie: get better soon! Off to bed! Take…

Hi friends. Things are ok here. Yesterday was summer graduation which took up the whole afternoon then DD#2 and I went out to dinner. Today her best friend invited both of us to lunch, and now we are going to dinner at some friends'. Good grief. I will have to get back on the wagon...TOMORROW. Our friends usually cook…

Hi friends. I think my UTI is much better, but now I’m nauseated, probably from the antibiotics. It’s always something, isn’t it? Today is DH’s birthday. Those people who have been around a while know I like trying to be funny and crack myself up sometimes. So I sent him a birthday email (remember it gets read before he…

Hi all. I am about 50% better but very tired. I got blasted with antibiotics since it was heading to my kidney. But symptoms are starting to improve. I did fair on July goals, lost a couple more pounds but still haven't been exercising the way I should. I also Increased the amount of fruit I was eating. Barbie: get better…

Hi ladies. I was hit out of the blue with a horrible bladder infection (never had one before) that might be up in my right kidney. Went to the clinic and got antibiotics early this morning, then after reading the paper I slept the majority of the day. That's all from me; heading back to bed. Meg from Omaha

Hi my friends. I stayed home from work today and graded on line papers. They were mostly bad. Only 1 person even followed the directions! *heavy sigh I think I have my first-ever bladder infection! Burning, urgency, some blood…yow! I have an appointment at 0750 tomorrow. Not sure how that happened; I don’t have any of the…

Hi gals. I had a long post all typed up and ready to post and *poof* it's gone. So I will just say goodnight. Take care, Meg from Omaha

Hi friends. It’s going to be cool here this weekend, in the 70s. We got a nice slow 2” of rain last night so it was great sleeping weather! I had a friend come out and do some yard work for me which helped a ton! He worked for 3 hours and did more than I could do in a day! Well that silly Saturn is running like a charm. I…

Hi friends. Just popping in to say hi and to report that I put on a pair of shorts yesterday that I bought in June and they were falling off! YAY! Kaylia: I like that prescription too. OK need to run! More tomorrow. Meg from Omaha

Hello to all my friends. Not much to report here. It’s only 84 and low-ish humidity so it’s nice out. I had the landscaping guy out to see about a new bed where the grass doesn’t grow anymore and re-edging the other beds. I also got a paint estimate for the exterior today and am waiting for one more. This guy was $3600…

Hi ladies. It’s another Monday, which is astonishing to me! Where does the time go? I had a nice weekend; out to dinner and to listen to a band Saturday, then friends over here for dinner last night plus I went to a friend’s house and we just chilled and watched a little TV. I actually finished the taxes enough to take to…

Good morning to all. I slept too late to get any yard work done before it got too hot, so I’m going to work on the book for a while. Then later I’m going to dinner with friends then out to see a band I love, at a bar that I’ve never been to and has some odd reviews, as it “Don’t go there unless you want to see some serious…

Greetings. I'm still here...I guess...sort of? I am just really frustrated that time just flies by and I get nothing done. I'm beginning to feel a little worthless. I've looked at all your great photos and have loved them! Thank you everyone for sharing! For $300 I learned that you should NOT put LED light bulbs in a…

Hi friends. I swear I do not know what is going on in my life and I simply cannot seem to take control! I'm just struggling! ERG! One good thing is that my weight has been stable for several weeks now. I just need to ramp things up. I think I will try eating more produce and drinking more water, and of course, exercising…

Good morning group. I can only stay a few minutes. I had a horrible panic attack yesterday when I got home from therapy that lasted 30-40 minutes during the worst part, but then it lingered on into the evening. I am wiped out. I have a call into my therapist. Don't know what she can do, but I thought she should know about…

hi friends. It's been one thing after another. I got over the migraine and got the GI yuck. Spent the weekend in bed. I'm at work today but still feel a little queasy. Haven't heard much about my friend's surgery (it's kind of hush-hush), but my best friend's beloved dog, Max, was just diagnosed with a rare form of…

Hi all. It's been a long hot day and I am getting a migraine, so I'm heading to bed early. I'd appreciate prayers and/or healing thoughts for a co-worker who had urgent brain surgery today for a couple of fast-growing tumors. :'( Meg from Omaha

Hi friends. I hope you all had a safe and fun Fourth of July! I went to a party at my best friend's house. We just went out to do fireworks when a big storm rolled in! So he got them off quickly. When I got home it was SO nice...no fireworks going off in the pouring rain. But I suspect they will be going off (illegally)…

Hi ladies. I swear I don't know how days pass me by without me noticing. Thank you for all the hugs and good thoughts about no-so-DD#1. She has been hostile and stand-offish ever since we got her, and it has just gotten worse and worse over the years. Actually both of our therapists and the one counselor who saw her years…

Hi friends. It’s time to start coming in to work once in a while! I have an online course starting today and so I have 2 live chat orientations. We had 4” of rain Saturday night. This was on top of all the rain we already had. 10” so far this month and we are still below normal. Good grief. WARNING: rant ahead. Well…

Hi all. It's terribly hot and humid today so I am hiding indoors until later this evening when I go out to hear one of my favorite local bands. Mary: sending prayers daily! Katla: I'm not exactly sure what the Wellbutrin is supposed to do....I guess I didn't quite understand or I forgot why I'm on it. I know it's an…

Hi friends. Well it looks like stormy weather in on our agenda again for today. I hope the College World Series isn’t postponed! I have electricians coming over to fix a couple of ceiling fan remotes soon. My A1C yesterday was 6.3 (down from 7) and my blood pressure was 112/60. I’m starting my Wellbutrin today. UGH. Sick…

Hi all. The funeral yesterday was really nice; lots of people got up and spoke. My friend was very funny and a great practical joker, so the stories were really hilarious. By the time it was over, everyone was laughing instead of crying. Of course the stories abound with theories on how he died. But really, who cares? He…

Hi all. Well I am finally awake after a sleep-induced weekend from melatonin. I can't remember what I told you guys, but I was prescribed that and Wellbutrin, and I start the Wellbutrin this Thursday. OMG that melatonin about knocked me senseless, but I am slowly getting used to it now. Just heard a friend died Friday.…

Good morning friends. It has gone from hotter than hell to needing an ark around here! We got 3" just yesterday on top of the two days before where it was torrential, but I didn't have my rain gauge out. That's how you know it's College World Series season around here! The weather is always bad! Saw my psychiatric nurse…

Good morning friends. OMG is it going to be hot today and tomorrow. Heat index in the 105 range…bleh! I’m going to balance yard work (10 minutes at a time) with inside work. KetoneKaren: thanks for the info. I knew tulips and such require bone meal, but never thought about using it on the iris….duh!

Hi everyone! Today is hot and windy and the damn awnings pulled apart again. Maybe the third repair will be the charm! But I have to wait until next week. We had a bad storm Monday night and one came out of the tracks. I’ve done some yard work today, took a nap, and now I have a new book project to start. Heather: sorry…

Hi friends. I am home safe and sound! DH, DD#2, and I had a great visit. We stayed at his cousin’s house and she gave me a house key and the code to the garage door so I can come whether they are home or not. So nice! She is saving me hundreds and probably thousands on hotel costs! DH looks great. He has been exercising…

Hi friends. I don't know what has happened to me the last couple of weeks; the time has just disappeared. Lots of drama with both DDs. I'm going to Colorado tomorrow to see DH then will be back HERE Tuesday. See you then! Meg from Omaha
